    I have the magazine insert here - definitely says: "Make Jewellery Magazine have teamed up with Beads Unlimited to offer every reader a FREE* Beautiful Beginner's Jewellery Kit worth £10.90!" and "*postage charge applies" in small print. There is no mention of a minimum order value and there is no indication that you can't just order the free kit. It even says: "This is not a club offer and there is no obligation to purchase further items in applying for this offer."

    It says you can order by post, phone, online or email. I guess you could phone 01273 740777 or email mailbox@beadsunlimited.co.uk. You can't apply by post without the magazine insert order form. You could quote the bits above, if necessary. ;)
